Conjectures: If n is odd then a(n) = (1/8) * (n^4 + 2*n^3 + 2*n^2 + 2*n + 1) = Det(Transpose[M]*M) where M is the 2 X 3 matrix whose rows are [(n-1)/2, (n-1)/2], [(n-1)/2 + 1, 0], and [(n-1)/2 + 1, (n-1)/2 + 1]. If n is odd then a(n) = (1/8) * (n^4 + 2*n^3 + 2*n^2) = Det(Transpose[M]*M) where M is the 2x3 matrix whose rows are [n/2, 0], [n/2, n/2], and [n/2 + 1, 0]. - Gerald McGarvey (gerald.mcgarvey(AT)comcast.net), Oct 30 2007
